    My guess, mixer from the mid '90s. They don't seem to care too much about the color of the equipment anymore. Up here on the Route 84 job, most of the stuff is whatever color. Seems the newer trucks are mostly white. Little sad seeing things change in some ways.

    You can easily spend over an hour if you Google Tennessee Walking Horse, and not scratch the surface. At least that's what I found out last evening (lol) Interesting story, from so many angles.

    Time was there was plenty of walking draglines around here. So why not a horse.

    Now why would you think that ? (lol) Looks like maybe from a mixer.

    Ahhh. They're big trucks. They dwarf the Macks....and the Macks are huge.

    Two of those look like Hayes or Pacifics.

    I saw and read about the yellow and white one in Wheels Of Time. This truck has way more history to go along with it.

    Sorry, it's been sold. I thought Barry had one advertised here a while ago. Might not have been an '04 . I don't remember.

    The interior trim around the pedals needs to be removed to expose it. It's where everything plugs between the cab and chassis. So what you see outside on the cowl with the light harnesses plugged into it is the panel itself. Inside it looks like a fusebox with breakers.

    I just sold one of those. I almost wanna say Barry had one advertised on here not too long ago.

    Probably that panel down by your feet on the left that isn't serviceable. (EMPC or something like that)

    🤔 I wonder if he's looking for script for the hood ?

    Don't let him kid you Bob, the hand written ones come straight from The Donald. He's try to maintain some level of modesty.

    I bet those trucks were green and white. They're just mixed service steers on Dean's, and my guess is being Michelins they're expensive. They say they do better on soft earth as opposed to a more ribbed highway design type. Believe it or not, a 315 steer (like may come off of a green and white truck) rated for 10000 pounds usually costs more then a like rated 385.

    Black bush..... that thing you were gonna eat that was pink inside. 🤔

    Those trucks made better drivers too.

    Trust me, it looks to be long enough for a body and lift axle. It's on my mind. Especially since I had two like that.

    860 area code is Connecticut. Looks like it's a truck from Canada. 25 years ago they were popular used trucks in The North East. Hardly see them anymore, let alone in the shape that one looks to be in. Beautiful truck, and they were usually decked out inside too when they were like that. 😏 I'm no more than 4 hours away from it....hmmmm

    I bought one of those (right side) from Watts. IDK a part number, but the VIN was 001141 '07 CTP713 I don't remember what it cost, but I know at the time I was just happy to get one

    Leak down test would be the next thing. Or remove the exhaust manifold and look for a port that looks different to see which hole to start investigating more. Leak down or a bore scope in through the injector hole. Never know, if an injector washed it down , maybe it doesn't need an entire inframe. Once the head is off, you'll see how worn the inside is in general. Sounds like you're going inside though.

    That test for the turbo sometimes you need to cobble the return line to run into a pail and look for bubbles in the oil that collects in there when the return is under the oil in the pail, and just to make it interesting it needs to be sorta hot (like operating temperature) it's a messy test and you'll pump a fair amount of oil out into a bucket doing it. But ????
